Makilala TV Celebrates it's first year!

Makilala is the first Filipino-American TV talk show in the New York metropolitan area. It means "get to know" in Tagalog.  It is aired through Queens Public Television, a public access station, and highlights a guest or two every month to discuss issues that are important to Filipinos. We’ve had conversations with community leaders and advocates on a wide array of topics, such as autism, language and culture, voting rights, millennials and social good, Filipinos on Broadway, seniors and social media, fundraising for Typhoon Haiyan and more. 

 

Makilala is hosted by three accomplished women namely, book author Jen Furer, health educator Rachelle Ocampo, and journalist Cristina DC Pastor. Maricor Fernandez of QPTV is the director-producer. Makilala, which is entering its second year, was officially launched November 15, 2013  at the Philippine Consulate on Fifth Avenue.
